Ferry Dubrovnik to Split, Mljet, Korčula, Brač and Hvar 2026

Traveling from Dubrovnik to Korčula, Hvar, Brač and Split by sea is easiest in the main season thanks to fast foot-passenger catamarans operating on the Dubrovnik ↔ Split corridor. This route is typically run by Krilo (Kapetan Luka) and TP Line, with slightly different timetables (and sometimes different stop patterns), so always match the times below to the operator you’re traveling with.

In general, departures are from Dubrovnik ferry port (Gruž) and arrivals are at Split ferry port. These are passenger-only services (no cars). Depending on the operator and period, the sailing may stop at island ports such as Mljet (Pomena), Korčula (Old Town), Hvar Town and Milna on Brač (for example, Krilo commonly includes Mljet/Pomena on this corridor).

As a price guide, Krilo’s and TP Line published one-way fares list Dubrovnik-Split at 50 EUR, Dubrovnik-Hvar at 50 EUR, Dubrovnik-Korčula (Old Town) at 25 EUR, and Dubrovnik-Mljet (Pomena) at 20 EUR (TP Line prices can differ, so check when booking). In Korčula, confirm whether the catamaran docks on the eastern or western side of the port around 30 minutes before departure.

Quick facts for the Split - Milna (Brač) - Hvar Town - Korčula (Old Town) - Dubrovnik fast ship (catamaran) service.

• Operators: this corridor is typically operated by Krilo (Kapetan Luka) and TP Line (TP Line No. 842).
• Route (stops): most sailings follow Split → Milna (Brač) → Hvar Town → Korčula (Old Town) → Dubrovnik (and reverse); some Krilo sailings also include Mljet (Pomena) as an extra stop.
• Passenger-only: this is not a car ferry (vehicles do not board).
• Typical departures (main season examples): Krilo often operates Split 08:00 → Dubrovnik 12:30 and Dubrovnik 15:30 → Split 20:00; TP Line (Line 842) publishes Dubrovnik 08:00 → Split 13:25 and Split 15:10 → Dubrovnik 20:20; TP Line (Line 654) publishes Dubrovnik 14:55 → Split 20:00 and Split 09:00 → Dubrovnik 14:15 (shorter season: 08 May - 18 Oct).
• Capacity: fast ships can sell out in peak season, buy ahead when possible and arrive early for boarding, especially if you need the ticket office.
• Port notices: on sailings that stop in Hvar, minor delays are possible due to reduced entry speed; in Korčula, docking can be on the eastern or western side, confirm locally about 30 minutes before departure.
• Best use: island hopping (Split ↔ Hvar ↔ Korčula) or the fastest sea connection between Split and Dubrovnik in season; if you need a quick same-day return, check direct options and alternatives.

Tickets & reservations (Krilo vs TP Line)

Best practice: buy tickets online in advance to secure a seat, especially in July and August. This route is operated by Krilo (Kapetan Luka) and TP Line, so always confirm the operator name on your ticket and match it to the correct timetable above.

How to buy tickets

• Online (recommended): book your ferry tickets or use the operator’s official webshop.
• Ticket sale points: available in ports (useful if you need help choosing the correct sailing, but queues are common in peak season).
• On the vessel: sometimes possible shortly before departure only if seats remain (not reliable in summer).

Reservations and sold-out sailings

• Krilo: tickets cannot be reserved, buy the ticket to secure your place.
• TP Line: in peak season, tickets can sell out, secure them in advance when possible.

When to arrive for boarding

• Minimum: aim to be at the boarding area at least 15 minutes before departure.
• Peak season: arrive earlier if you need the ticket office, are traveling with luggage, or want time to confirm the correct pier (Korčula side can vary).

Ports and boarding tips (Dubrovnik, Korčula, Hvar, Milna and Split)

These are fast passenger catamarans, so boarding is quick and pier changes can happen. As a baseline, TP Line asks passengers to arrive no later than 15 minutes before departure, while Krilo notes boarding usually starts about 30 minutes before departure (except intermediate ports). In peak season, arrive earlier if you need the ticket office, have luggage, or want better seat choice.

Dubrovnik: where to board (Gruž port)

All fast catamarans on this corridor depart from Dubrovnik ferry port (Gruž). Arrive early, find the correct operator/ticket point (Krilo or TP Line), then follow the pier signage for catamarans/fast ferries.

Korčula: east vs west port departure

Korčula can be confusing because catamarans may use different docking points depending on conditions. TP Line notes the catamaran can depart from a different place (west port) in bad weather, and Krilo advises confirming locally shortly before departure. If you’re planning to spend time on the island, see our Korčula travel guide.

Hvar Town: boarding

In Hvar Town, catamarans use the main passenger port area by the town center. Because the stop is short, be ready to board as soon as disembarking passengers clear, and follow crew instructions. If Hvar is your main stop, our Hvar travel guide can help you plan beaches, viewpoints and day trips around the ferry timetable.

Milna (Brač): what to know

Milna is a smaller port on Brač and the catamaran stop is brief. If you are staying elsewhere on Brač (e.g., Supetar or Bol), plan your onward transfer in advance because local transport/taxis can be limited at certain times.

Split: arrivals and onward connections

In Split you arrive at Split ferry port, right by the old town. If you’re connecting to another ferry/catamaran, check the next departure pier as soon as you arrive (piers can vary by operator and day).

Luggage, bicycles and pets (Krilo vs TP Line)

Both operators are passenger-only catamarans, so space is limited. Krilo allows up to 23 kg of luggage per passenger (plus one carry-on), while TP Line defines hand luggage up to 20 kg. Pet and bicycle rules differ, use the notes below and always follow crew instructions at boarding.

Luggage

• Krilo (Kapetan Luka): allowed luggage is up to 23 kg per passenger, plus one piece of carry-on you keep with you.
• TP Line: hand luggage can weigh up to 20 kg; passengers are responsible for their own luggage during the trip and should follow staff instructions for placement.
• Oversized items: if you have extra-large bags, arrive early and ask at check-in/boarding—space on catamarans is limited.

Bicycles

• Krilo (Kapetan Luka): bicycles are possible on all ships but capacity is limited; transport is at your own risk and the bicycle ticket price is the same as a passenger ticket.
• TP Line: vessels are not designed for bicycles/cargo; the captain may allow a bicycle as personal luggage only if there is enough space, but do not rely on this in peak season.

Pets

• Basic rule: pets are accepted only if they do not pose a danger or disturbance; owners travel at their own risk and are responsible for any damage.
• Dogs: muzzle (except guide/service dogs) and leash.
• Cats and birds: cats in boxes, birds in cages.
• Documents: dogs and cats must have proper vaccination documents/health booklet.
• Small pets in the salon: small pets are allowed in the indoor passenger area only in a carrier bag with maximum dimensions 45 x 35 x 25 cm, with a waterproof bottom; the total weight of bag + pet must not exceed 8 kg. The bag must stay under the seat or on the lap, and one passenger may have only one pet bag.
• Larger pets: only possible if the vessel has suitable boxes/cages/kennels available on the open deck (limited and may be charged depending on operator and availability).

Alternatives if the catamaran is not running or sold out

If the Dubrovnik ↔ Split catamaran is not operating (common outside the main season) or is sold out, the most reliable fallback is to travel Dubrovnik ↔ Split by road, then use the much more frequent Split connections for islands like Brač and Hvar. For Korčula with a car, the classic alternative is driving to Orebić and taking the car ferry to Dominče (Korčula).

Dubrovnik ↔ Split by bus (most reliable year-round alternative)

When sea services are limited, buses are usually the simplest Plan B. Travel times vary by traffic and border/road conditions, but Dubrovnik → Split journeys can be as short as 3 hours 55 minutes on some services. If you are connecting onward to islands, it can be easier to aim for Split first and continue by ferry/catamaran from the main port.

Korčula with a car: drive to Orebić, then car ferry to Dominče (Korčula)

If you need your vehicle on Korčula (or you missed a passenger catamaran), use the Orebić ↔ Dominče (Korčula) car ferry (Jadrolinija publishes the official schedule and price list for this line). This is the standard mainland-to-Korčula vehicle route and runs beyond the summer season. See Orebić ↔ Korčula car ferry details

Hvar and Brač via Split (more departures and easier connections)

Split is Croatia’s main island-hub port, so if the Dubrovnik corridor catamaran isn’t available, you can usually reach islands more easily after traveling to Split. For Brač, the Split ↔ Supetar car ferry crossing takes about 50 minutes. For Hvar, Split ↔ Hvar Town fast catamarans are frequent in season and common schedules show roughly about 1 hour 15 minutes on typical sailings (operator and period dependent). See our Split ferry port guide.

When to switch to Plan B

• Traveling outside the main season: expect fewer (or no) Dubrovnik ↔ island ↔ Split fast catamaran sailings and plan via road + Split instead.
• Sold out tickets: if you can’t buy online the day before (or the morning of travel), assume it may be full and switch early to bus/car.
• Windy forecast: fast catamarans are more sensitive to sea conditions than car ferries—keep a flexible plan if you have tight connections.

Yes, in the main season there are direct foot-passenger catamarans on the Dubrovnik ↔ Split corridor, typically operated by Krilo and TP Line (schedules and stop patterns can differ by operator and period).

How long is the ferry from Dubrovnik to Split?

It depends on the operator and stop pattern: published timetables show roughly about 4 hours 30 minutes (Krilo) to about 5 hours 10–5 hours 25 minutes (TP Line examples).

How long is the ferry from Dubrovnik to Korčula?

Published timetables show about 2 hours from Dubrovnik to Korčula on this corridor (operator and period dependent).

How long is the ferry from Dubrovnik to Hvar?

Published timetables typically show around 3 hours 20 minutes to about 4 hours from Dubrovnik to Hvar Town, depending on operator and sailing period.

Is this a car ferry?

No. These Dubrovnik ↔ Split corridor sailings are fast passenger catamarans and do not take vehicles.

Where do ferries leave from in Dubrovnik?

Most ferries and catamarans depart from Dubrovnik’s main port area in Gruž (not the Old Town port).

Do ferries run in winter?

Usually not on this corridor: both Krilo and TP Line publish this Dubrovnik ↔ Split catamaran route as a spring-to-autumn seasonal service (check the “valid from–to” dates for your travel day).

How early should I arrive at the port?

TP Line asks passengers to arrive no later than 15 minutes before departure, while Krilo requires arriving at least 30 minutes before departure (and earlier is smart in July/August if you need the ticket office or want time to confirm the pier).

Can I bring luggage and pets?

Yes, but rules differ by operator. Krilo allows up to 23 kg per passenger (plus carry-on) and TP Line defines hand luggage up to 20 kg; small pets are typically allowed in a carrier bag with size/weight limits (check your operator rules when booking).

Is there a car ferry alternative for Korčula if I need a vehicle?

Yes. The classic vehicle route is to drive to Orebić (Pelješac) and take the Jadrolinija car ferry to Dominče (Korčula).

What is the best alternative if the catamaran is sold out?

Go by road to Split and connect from there; Dubrovnik→Split bus journeys can be as short as 3 hours 55 minutes on some services, depending on the departure.
